I migliori ristorantinella città San bartolomeo al mare della Imperia

03/01/2026: We had an unforgettable evening. The setting is truly enchanting. The wine selection is excellent. Each dish was beautifully presented, and I personally recommend the risotto. The choice of main courses is also overwhelming; each one is worth trying! The desserts are delicious. The staff is kind and professional. We will definitely be back. We highly recommend it.

01/01/2026: First of all, Happy New Year. When you enter certain places, expectations are high, sometimes due to the "reviews." I'll get to the point: the location and restaurant are beautiful, the welcome and the professional table setting are excellent, and so far so good. Let's talk about the menu shown in the photo, at €95 excluding wine and drinks. It's the last dinner of 2025 that you want to enjoy with your partner. Upon reading, the menu, destined to remind us of a memorable evening, is certainly quite harmonious, with unusual pairings that immediately set my taste buds on edge. We chose a very popular white wine from Vulture, and so far so good. To begin, a greeting from the kitchen: "leek and whitebait tart," which in my opinion was a little unbalanced, followed by an excellent tartare with a good seasoning. I appreciated the crunch of the toasted hazelnuts, which, given the good execution, gives us hope for a prelude of flavors. Here begins the flat ECG, without a jolt to listen to with our palates. You'd understand the disappointment—mine, my companion's, and some of the other diners at the nearby table—if you'd tried it yourself. The scallop and Jerusalem artichoke were flat in flavor, and the scallop was actually thinly sliced. The pancetta looked good, but didn't taste good. It lacked structure; a shame, the idea was good, the execution was terrible. The cuttlefish with minted beans tasted good, but it was a shame the dish was cold, and the sauce was consequently too cold. The squid was sparse; I only had one piece with 10 beans. First course, very engaging to read, but little in substance "Fregola with turnip tops (only the chlorophyll), clams, scrambled oysters and Roman conciato. A very disappointing macrobiotic preparation, the strong, concentrated flavour of the turnip tops cancelled everything out. Here too, the idea was good, but the execution was terrible and flat. Even the cod, now the prince of the seas, was downgraded and hidden under an indistinguishable blanket of combinations" mashed potatoes and cream of cauliflower "bad execution (in my opinion, obviously). Last but not least, the phantom tasting of cotechino and auspicious lentils. Nothing to do with tradition, not to mention the risk of the hollandaise sauce which negatively distorted the simplicity of the cotechino's flavour. Well, I won't go any further. Sometimes we should follow proverbs, for example "He who wants too much, ends up with nothing" and I conclude by saying that cooking is the taste and art of the Soul. Experimenting is fine, but tasting is essential. Happy New Year!

06/05/2026: Beautiful place, the owner and his two staff members were very kind and helpful, the food was excellent, and the beers even better. A very positive experience that I recommend and will definitely return.

01/05/2026: The location is surrounded by greenery and has an old-world atmosphere, just like the restaurant itself. Excellent cuisine, and the owner is very knowledgeable about dishes that I would call local in part and medieval in part. A pleasant discovery, definitely recommended.

12/04/2026: We had lunch here yesterday and I have to say it was great. A (fairly large) fresh pizza for 9 euros is perfectly reasonable, especially since we sat right on the beach promenade and had a fantastic view of the Mediterranean. The food was also delicious and the service was friendly. Important: Our dog was no problem either.

12/04/2026: The food is always good, but the odd arrangement is that the inside tables where I dined are NOT set with placemats, not even paper ones. The ones on the veranda are. When I complained, they replied that they made this choice, and that I still had a €2 cover charge on my bill. Both first-class and second-class customers (without placemats, it's highly questionable from a hygienic point of view).

06/12/2025: A place where quality, kindness, and friendliness compete! Highly recommended. Excellent food!

08/11/2025: Very welcoming and pleasant atmosphere. The owners are wonderful people, Deborah is a unique force who knows how to involve customers and made us feel at home. We ate very well and drank an excellent 2019 Barbera GAJARD DEL MONFERRATO!!! Thanks guys!! TRY IT AND BELIEVE IT! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!

10/10/2025: The focaccia and brioches are delicious, congratulations!

10/04/2026: Excellent food, friendly staff I'd say it's our favorite restaurant in the area

06/04/2026: The guys are super nice! Excellent products. Well done!!!

05/03/2026: Super friendly staff and excellent food Interesting location on the pedestrian street with sea views

16/04/2026: The owner gave us a very warm welcome for lunch. The food was excellent, as were the desserts. A place to remember 😊

11/04/2026: It's a family-run restaurant specializing in local and seafood specialties. There's no better restaurant for the food, which uses only the freshest ingredients (some dishes may not be available due to the freshness of the ingredients). I think it seats around 25 people, and it's often full. Calling to reserve is recommended. The only downside is the ambiance, which is very '70s/'80s, but for a restaurant like this, who cares? Just enjoy!

08/04/2026: We've stopped here several times with family, and this little bar is a delight. The owners are incredibly kind, and the food is simply excellent! I recommend it without hesitation.

07/04/2026: Excellent breakfast, also as an aperitif
